Malaya the Snow Leopard strikes an iconic pose that echos an illuminated chapter heading inscribed by monks during the dark ages - from before Gutenberg invented moveable type....!
Friday night during the golden hour of sunset and the first hours of the Brookfield Zoo Holiday Lights festival, Malaya and her mate Sabu were more active than I've seen them! Here Malaya frolics with some extra something in a green bag that her caretakers gave her - is there such a thing as Leopard-Nip? Because she was pretty cranked up!

Aside from Wild Dogs, the one species I was most hoping to see was the Leopard. In the end, we actually saw seven different animals - I would have been over the moon with just one!
Here's a couple of images from two individuals, taken in Erindi and Okonjima game reserves...

The leopard is the most elusive and secretive of the large felids. They are extremely difficult to trace and locate in the wild. They run up to 58km/h and can leap 6m horizontally and 3m vertically.

Another view of the beautiful female leopard that we saw on our first game drive in Motswari Private Game Reserve.
We spotted an old female on the other side of the dry riverbed yesterday - she was watching us watching her. She is probably the same one that has been wandering through the camp for the last two nights.
Leopards are graceful and powerful cats. (Skukuza, Kruger National Park)

A young female leopard moving through the bush and undergrowth with the silence and stealth of a hungry cat.
We found this beautiful young leopard lying some 10 meters next to the road and quite relaxed. We had this one for ourselves because passing cars did not stop and asked where we were watching at!!
Another photo of the beautiful female leopard that ran alongside the road as we were driving along. We stopped the car and she came up beside the car and hid behind a bush and began watching some Impala on the opposite side. They spotted her and she decided to just sit and wait. There were no other cars around for quite a while, so a wonderful sighting where we had her to ourselves for photos.

This female leopard was hunting early in the morning. She had one cub hiding in some underbrush which I did not see. When you go on a photographic tour with fourteen people, some will see something while the others do not. But, it was a privilege to have this leopard confident enough to allow people to photograph her as she moved out into the open. And, at times, we were very close.

Leopards are graceful and powerful cats. They are astoundingly strong and are the strongest of the big cats. They are able to climb trees, even when carrying heavy prey, and often choose to rest on tree branches during the day.
The leopard is the most elusive and secretive of the large felids. They are extremely difficult to trace and locate in the wild.
They run up to 58km/h and can leap 6m horizontally and 3m vertically. They are also very strong swimmers.

I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

One early rainy morning we spotted this young male leopard sitting out near the road not far from camp! He was sitting in some bushes and just sat there and stared at us! I love this capture with his tongue out and I think it shows his youth! This photo was taken in the Olare motorogi conservancy in Kenya!

You get a shiver in the dark
It's raining in the park, but meantime
South of the river, you stop, and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie, double-four time
You feel alright when you hear the music ring
Well, now you step inside
But you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
Ah, but the horns, they're blowing that sound
Way on down south
Way on down south, London town
Check out guitar George
He knows all the chords
Mind, it's strictly rhythm
He doesn't wanna make it cry or sing
Yes and an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
He can play the honky tonk like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans
With the Sultans of Swing
Yeah
And a crowd of young boys
They're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies
And their platform soles
They don't give a damn
About any trumpet-playing band
It ain't what they call "Rock and Roll"
And the Sultans
Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
Creole
And then the man, he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last, just as the time bell rings
"Goodnight, now it's time to go home"
Then he makes it fast with one more thing
"We are the Sultansโ
We are the Sultans of Swing"
